Extreme Makeover: Home Edition - San Antonio

In January 2012, Jon Wayne Heating & Air was proud to assist in the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition finale, which aired December 10, 2012.

The latest and final project benefits the family of retired Staff Sergeant Shilo Harris, who was severely burned by an improvised explosive device in Iraq in 2007. “Shilo’s situation reminds us that the sacrifices made by our wounded warriors often continue after they return home,” said Rackler. “This is an opportunity to give back to the Harris family, and build Shilo a safe, clean and comfortable new home that will help his recovery.”

We are extremely proud of the Jon Wayne employees who so graciously donated their time and talent to the Harris family's new home.

An IQAir Merv 16 Air Filtration system was installed by Jon Wayne, alongside a UV lights to stop mold and bacteria growth within the HVAC system. This system purifies the home's air to make it extremely clean, dust, particle, and mold/mildew free.
